Shower tray repair in Point Clear without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. We are often asked to fix snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that flexes, on enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No need to remove anything

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CO16 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
